Founded in 1938, Weinberg Supply is known for its dedication to delivering top-tier commercial laundry equipment and supplies to laundromats, dry cleaners, and on-premises laundries. With a strong focus on customer satisfaction, Weinberg aims to provide not only high-quality equipment but also reliable service and solutions that help grow their businesses.
Jon Boike, who joined the Weinberg team in 2020 after running his own dry cleaning and laundry business, shared how Clean Laundry Funding became a vital partner in helping them achieve this mission.
Discovering Clean Laundry Funding’s Advantage
Jon Boike first connected with Clean Laundry Funding through an introduction from Josh Kiley, National Business Development Manager. “Josh’s persistence and proactive approach made him stand out right from the start,” Jon said. In a competitive market with multiple financing options, it was CLF’s speed, communication, and ease of working together that stood out to Weinberg.
“There are so many vendors who don’t even get back to us for days. With Josh, I get answers right away, and that’s been critical in moving deals forward quickly.”

Ease and Efficiency
For E. Weinberg Supply, one of the most valued aspects of working with Clean Laundry Funding is the ease and simplicity of the financing process. Jon also pointed out that the streamlined process with Clean Laundry Funding means fewer obstacles when closing deals. “Compared to traditional banks, Clean Laundry Funding’s process is just so much easier,” Jon explains. “For our laundry operators, many of whom are small business owners, Clean Laundry Funding provides an accessible option they can rely on.”
Responsiveness and transparent terms make them stand out from other lenders, which Jon says has been key in providing peace of mind. “Josh’s prompt communication and straightforward financing options allow us to confidently recommend Clean Laundry Funding to our customers.”
Speed and Reliability
In the commercial laundry industry, where downtime can significantly impact revenue, speed and reliability are essential. Weinberg Supply’s customers often operate on a limited number of machines, and when one breaks down, the need for replacement is urgent.
“When a customer’s machine goes down, they need immediate assistance,” shares Jon. “Clean Laundry Funding’s fast responses and quick access to funding make a huge difference.”
Jon recounted a recent instance where one of their customers, a laundromat owner, faced critical downtime due to equipment failure. “Our customer was barely operating with enough machines as it was. Traditional financing would have kept him waiting for weeks, but Clean Laundry Funding helped us secure funding almost immediately,” Jon said. “This allowed us to replace his equipment right away, keeping his business running smoothly without losing valuable time.”
The ability to deliver quick financing solutions has earned Clean Laundry Funding a reputation as a go-to partner for customers who need fast, reliable support.
Enhancing Business Operations
By working with Clean Laundry Funding, Weinberg Supply has been able to offer flexible financing options that match the specific needs of their customers. Whether it’s spreading payments over twelve months or ten years, Clean Laundry Funding provides cash flow solutions that help smaller operators invest in their businesses without being overwhelmed by large upfront costs.
“Being able to finance equipment purchases is incredibly helpful to our customers,” Jon said. “I owned laundromats myself, so I know how important cash flow is. Having flexible financing options allows our customers to make smart investments without putting too much strain on their budget.”
A Success Story: Supporting Growth in North Dakota
One particularly inspiring story involves a North Dakota customer, who was a military veteran and a new business owner. After launching a wash-and-fold service for college students, he soon faced increasing demand. To keep up, he needed to invest in an industrial ironer, but the upfront cost was beyond his immediate cash flow.
With financing from Clean Laundry Funding, the business owner was able to purchase the industrial-powered machine, which not only halved his labor costs but also allowed his team to nearly quadruple their production. “It was incredible to see how quickly he grew after that investment. The savings and increased capacity meant he could take on many more clients, expanding his reach,” Jon shared. “He’s saving so much on labor that the equipment pays for itself,” Jon noted. “It’s a great example of how having access to the right financing helped a small business grow and thrive.”
Communication and Support
The strong communication and support that Jon and his team receive from Clean Laundry Funding is another key element of the partnership’s success. “Whenever someone asks about financing, I point them straight to Josh Kiley. The process is easy, and the support is always there when we need it.”
“Clean Laundry Funding is the easiest to work with, especially for deals that need to move fast. They’re responsive, competitive, and always there to support our customers.”
— Jonathon Boike, Weinberg Supply
Jon emphasized that Clean Laundry Funding has become their go-to recommendation for customers looking for financing options, especially for smaller deals where traditional banks may not be as flexible. “Clean Laundry Funding is the easiest to work with, especially for deals that need to move fast. They’re responsive, competitive, and always there to support our customers.”
Looking Ahead
Weinberg Supply’s partnership with Clean Laundry Funding continues to strengthen as they navigate an evolving industry together. As the demand for flexible financing grows, particularly in response to rising equipment costs and inflation, Jon sees CLF as a vital partner in helping Weinberg continue to meet their customers’ needs.
“Working with Josh and Clean Laundry Funding is about speed, simplicity, and service,” Jon summarized. “It’s a partnership that helps us serve our customers better and grow our business. We’re looking forward to many more years of success together.”
